Abstract: The crystal structures of ordered bcc, fcc or primitive cubic alloys AXBy and related NaCl, ZnS or CaF2 derivative structures are characterized by the self-coordination numbers T1, T2 of the A atoms with A atoms. Structures with identical T1 , T2 values for all A atoms are at the corners of T1 , T2 structure maps and can be analyzed for attractive or repulsive interactions of A atoms. Most observed structures are at the borders of the structure map and can be obtained by different combinations of structural units . The combination mechanisms explain e.g. the shear structures of CuAu II or Nb 205 and the occurrence of vacancies in NaC1 related structures like NbO . Many other ordered structures like magnetic ordering, adatoms an metal surfaces, colloids and Clusters are analyzed by the same method . The very large numbers of possible structures are reduced to a smaller number of structures at the borders of the structure maps, which are stabilized by enthalpy. The other structures are stabilized by entropy. The T1 , T2 values of DNA sequences in different areas of the structure map are related with the evolution
